Go Bears!!!!!

Same starters: Foreman, Bradley, Betley, Anticevich, Thiemann

Kevin Johnson looks young for his age.

So at 1 for 9 we should be getting a lot of rebounds.

Horrible shooting. Nichol not good.

As Bill Walton would say,"Please!"

Well we got 3 OR in that one brick laying sequence.

Would love to say the low score is due to great defense but that isn't the case. Too many turnovers. Lots of missed wide open shots. We are lucky to be ahead at this point. Nicholls State isn't good.

That's a concussion there. He should go to the hospital to be checked out. I have to watch out for my fellow Dragons.

If Grant can knock down those 3s and mid range Js, that really opens it up for Matt, Betley, Foreman and Kelly.

I'm sorry, but why can't Lars just catch and make an aggressive move? I don't want to cringe every time the ball goes to him down low.

Would like to see Foreman improve his shot selection. Hopefully he figures that out.
Thiemann shouldn't play more than 8-10 minutes/game, if that. Not sure why he is playing so much.
Love Bradley posting up. He should touch the ball on every possession.
Our defense is much improved this game. Intensity up.
Hopefully our shooting improves as we get our game legs under us. Right now, we can't finish well around the rim and are missing a lot of wide open looks.
Would like to see Thorpe more. Surprised he hasn't played at all this game.
Brown is very uncomfortable on the offensive end. Would love to see him develop a shot.
Shame about Bowser going down. I like his game even though he is skinny.

Yikes, Bowser's fall was gruesome.

Bowser landed flat on his back coming down from rim height. His head might have hit the floor, I couldn't see.

His head hit the floor. It rang his bell and he acted like it.

We need to score more than 23 in a half to have any chance. At the half we're 8 of 30 which is awful.

Betley & Jones have a running conversation going throughout the game. I wonder if they know each other.

What an ugly last 5 minutes of the half. Our O is just hard to watch.

8-30 shooting in the 1st half. Yikes! We also missed the front end twice. 4 points left out there.

Brown's totals are 1 missed shot, 2 fouls, and 2 turnovers. Gotta improve that.

Joel has to look to score. At least at the rim.

We are spaced pretty well on O. The timing of the flex screen is off though, and the cutter isn't setting up the defender when running off of the screen. We are only running one off ball screen at a time. Would love to see two going at a time to give the passer multiple options.

Kelly has regressed in finishing around the rim. He should have 3 baskets right now and he has missed all of them. All pretty much point blank.

Judging by his cryptic tweets, Brown has a lot on his mind.

Yah Kelly seems out of it. Man, are you the basketball version of killa22? Good analysis.

Why do we keep throwing it into Lars? It's a guaranteed turnover.

Kelly looks good everywhere but under our basket with the ball.

Finally Kelly

Need to get him back into it. Too many guys disappearing on offense. Let's go!

The PAC-12 channel has no outside commercials. A real embarrassment.

Betley looks to be settling down. He's been rather manic and ineffective in the first two games. He has a nice stroke, when he lets the game come to him.

Betley doesn't need any room to get his shot off.

Joel looks like he has no confidence right now.

I see Andre just standing there during defensive rebounds instead of looking for a body. That is hard to watch.

Ha! I wish. Killa is the man!

This game is so frustrating to watch. We are making the game so tough on ourselves. WAY too many turnovers. Just throwing it right to the other team.

We could use some lessons on v-cutting for sure. Our screens are mostly ineffective because we aren't setting up our defender. And our screeners aren't rolling properly and ready to accept passes, though KK did that just now. Would like to see him play more. Also had a nice box out leading to a foul on them.

Not enough movement on offense for my taste. We should be moving quickly after the pass leaves our hand, looking for someone away from the ball to hit. That is very different from how most teams (besides the Warriors and Spurs) play today (mostly on ball screens and pick and roll).

Too many of our passes are going to players who are moving away from the basket as opposed to players ready to shoot or moving towards the basket.

Ah sounds like of like the offense of our TV commentator today.

I know you would love to have a 7' BB player Fox, but Lars is not that. More Thorpe with some Kelly. Slow to no twitch

Playing time only when foul problems to first two.
